Re colour scheme:
The only real standard is that according to WCA-regs you scramble with darker colour (usually red) in front.
For most mass-produced puzzles that will result in yellow-top. But it really doesn't matter.
Well, I tried something:
I tried to approximate WR5 of the last 10 years with an exponential function. Worked really well for some events and really badly for others.
Looking at the reconstructions, it's just TPS. He's relatively inefficient for Roux. His movecount was similiar to Sebastian Weyer's, when Roux's movecount should be significantly lower.
Fabio said himself that he wrote the note about "BLD ongoing, please be quiet / do not disturb" after asking a delegate. So the fact that it's his handwriting, isn't surprising.
What I find a bit weird is how Lorenzo compares big-blind results to MBLD results. By that logic Stanley Chapel should have 50+ MBLD points and Shivam Bansal should have a 3-minute 5bld result.

So, what is your opinion. Are Fabio's results reasonable? Why, or why not?
And why were "many more top-level blinders" only contacted after the facebook-drama.
